Dear Data Interested Members!

The NNLM Data Visualization Challenge, hosted by the National Evaluation Center, will encourage participants to push the boundaries of their skills by testing out new tools, techniques, or approaches, and publicly demonstrating their best visualizations. Submissions will be accepted February 1 – March 31, 2023 (a link to the submission form will be sent when submission opens).

The challenge allows you to:

• Showcase an open dataset. You can use one or more sources of data that is openly available.
• Focus on any audience. You can focus your efforts on designing visualizations for one or more audiences.
• Use your choice of tools. You can use one or more visualization tools.

The top visualizations will be given $500 awards to be used for professional development. Submissions can be static or dynamic and will be shared in an open gallery in an online repository.

The Challenge will be judged by:

• Peace Ossom-Williamson, Associate Director of the National Center for Data Services at the Network of the National Library of Medicine (NNLM)
• Shanda Hunt, Public Health Library Liaison and Data Curation Specialist at the University of Minnesota
• Chris Belter, Program Analyst, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD)
